This only really matters if libvirt wants to coexist on a host with toolstacks which use claim, otherwise outstanding pages will never be non-zero. I don't know if coexistence is a goal or not.
Sure, all this is important only if having it is important/interesting... Jim?
It would be preferable if libvirt and xl coexisted nicely. No need for them to inter-operate (e.g. start a vm with libvirt then manage it with xl), but managing some with xl and others with libvirt should be a goal, I think :-/. If nothing else, it seems useful for troubleshooting. I wouldn't want to advise a user to try xl when things are failing for them with libvirt, only to find that afterwards their libvirt no longer worked at all.
Mmm... I'm not entirely sure I understand what you mean by this, but anyway, I just submitted a patch to libxl adding the symbol necessary to determine whether that field is present or not. If it gets accepted, I can then patch libvirt to use it, within the proper #ifdef...#endif block, of course.
